TESTIMONIALS & REVIEWS


Nice job keeping us all engaged in the exploration of CM. Staying focused on the 5 aspects of CM allow us to take away something concrete that we will remember. I do truly believe that effective CM is key to any effective organization.

Your real-world examples made the class very relatable. In my 17 years as a contractor, this has been one of my favorite training classes.

Very good presentation of good use of industry examples of both good and bad CM.

My knowledge of CM has been increased.

Wish I took this training 4 years ago when my team was working on a new project. Though, this class will help me now and in the near future.

I loved the format of this class. The instructor was extremely engaging and knowledgeable. The class materials are well written and easy to understand. Highly recommended!

I am impressed with this class so much so that I plan to become CMPIC certified soon!

It was very important to me to have the engineering group understand that CM is not an individual person - clerk in charge of paperwork. CM is a company function. This class gave me ideas on how to better our processes. It was well taught. Thanks CMPIC!
